A shooting took place in Imam Ali (a.s.) mosque yesterday in Muscat, Oman. The people in the mosque were peacefully mourning the eve of Ashura- the day of martyrdom of Imam Hussain (a.s.), the grandson of the Holy Prophet (pbuh), when all of a sudden 3 terrorists shot, killed and injured many Muslims present there.
As we all pray for palestine, please remember them in your prayers as well.

Every single Brawl Stars character as songs
So, I was unhappy with my prior posts on this topic, both because of the song choices I made and because I didn't properly credit the musicians behind them. Ergo, I'm going to compile all of the brawlers into a single list below the cut, and then update and reblog this post each time a new brawler is released.

I think that the events are happening in different timelines. The last TBD update alludes to that
Filler timeline
Canon timeline
first off, the "filler timeline" is called Cookie Run: Kingdom (for legal reasons this is a joke)
the last TBD update was meant to lead into this current update with Schneeball mentioning a dinosaur egg and now we in dino town and honestly it wouldnt make much sense to have an unannounced filler timeline within the story of OvenBreak imo
we know that Potato and Shine Muscat's update spans two years and during Sugar Swan's update Pilot and Whipped Cream travel around the world in more or less 80 days. during which, they meet Mala Sauce and her tribe so that specific meeting happened way before Longan woke up. from the sound of it, that meeting happened before Yam, Milk and Dino-Sour even got there bc thats what got the ball rolling on seeing the dragons.
its not super impossible for some of the events that launched between Longan's awakening and the clash of dragons to take place at the same time, Black Garlic couldve been exploring the school at the same time Rebel was helping out the Yakgwa village. maybe while Coffee Candy was starting her new job, Mocha Ray and Lobster were exploring Wandercrab or Roguefort was going into trial
i also dont wanna confuse "filler" for "non-diegetic"
the fashion week updates (specifically the 2nd one) and the wish camp updates were non-diegetic meaning that they were for audience only and had no true effects on the canon story because why and how would Longan agree to go see shooting stars with a bunch of cookies
that doesnt necessarily mean its a different timeline or that it even happened at a different point in time but just something to celebrate the games anniversary in a meta-storytelling like how the 5th anniversary was
i was confused on when things were happening in correlation to the dragons' stuff because i had thought Longan woke up and everything that followed happened over months at most not actual factual years

Eurovision 2024: #24
24. DENMARK Saba - "Sand" 30th place
youtube
Decade Ranking: 87/153 [Above Fyr og Flamme, below Luke Black]
SAND! SAAAAAAAAAAAAAND!!!
Tumblr media
You know the drill. We've arrived at the stage of "mostly enjoyable", and there's no better opener to that than "Sand". It's so delightfully average. Nothing but the recognisable sound of a "Scandinavian Eurovision song", something we all know and like to hear.
And its comes with a multipurpose hook too. Allow me to demonstrate:
FRANCE!!! FRAAAAAAAAAANCE!!!!
Tumblr media
SCREAMING AT A MICROPHONE STAAAAAND
FRANCE!!! FRAAAAAAAAANCE!!!
Tumblr media
I GUESS THAT ALL THE JURIES VOTE FOR FRANCE 😶
Of course "Sand" sounds like it comes out of a can (SPAM!!! SPAAAM!! BARELY MEAT THAT COMES OUT OF A CAN!), because it was one of those scandiblandi pop nothings that were bounced around internal selections for several years. (I hope you like those because I'm expecting 2025 to be infested with them) Remember how "Colours" was peddled first to Michela and then to Destiny to no avail, so that frumpy bat Bernarda was forced to sing it herself in the following Dora? ("NOW ALL I SEE IS COLOURS, YOU TOOK ME FROM BLACK AND WHITE" :is blind: ).
Likewise, the songwriters of "Sand" first tried to sell it to Emma Muscat when she tried to pivot away from "Out of Sight" before she chose "I am what I am" (MAN!!! MAAAAAN!!! I WILL TAKE ONE CUZ THAT'S HOW I AM!). Yep, an Emma Muscat hand-me-down, that's the level of Denmark at Eurovision right now. HOORAY for everyone who is not a Dane!!
So in that sense, it was the perfect match for DMGP, which was the usual depressing affair. So bad people were gravitating towards Basim cheerfully singing about a man dying from cirrhosis, an entry that demonstrated a near Israeli level of unselfawareness and moral corruption. But he lost (ANTS!!! AAAAAANTS! HIS HOPE HAS BEEN CRUSHED LIKE SOME ANTS! :victory dance: ) to Saba, and all was perfectly average in the world.
At Eurovision, I always assumed Saba would be in contention for a spot in the finale simply because of how catchy the hook and melody were. Unfortunately, Servephobia is a Scandinavian illness and both Melanie Webhe and Saba are patients.
Not that Saba didn't attempt to serve.... but um... judge for yourself:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
work those armpit fetishists, girl! IMBUE them with the power of irate sexfaces! Like idk, it's "serving" in the same sense of "the headcanon slaying" you and I would do in our bedroom acting out these songs like the useless homos- Zorra stans that we all are. It looks great in your imagination but in reality, :eek: . Kind of how this year's Belgian entrant thought he nailed the performance each time yet never rose above a level of:
Tumblr media
Also the staging, um... Look I know the song is called "Sand" and that she sings it's slipping through her hands, but everyone knows it's a metaphor? "Oh we've broken up? I guess that sucks :shrug:" Like the zoomer thing where life sucks I guess but it's not a big deal cuz we'll all die (eventually.)
So why make it so... (g)lit(t)eral?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Literally shooting cgi sand from her armpit in the last shot <3 told you this was aimed at fetishits <3 (PITS!!! PIIIITS!!! the hottest gay thing that ain't bara tids!).
What really killed Saba's chances at Eurovision was the staging. Sure the faces and subpar vocals were already... not helping. (they were entertaining me though, I'll give her that). Still. Denmark have proven once again that they have no ability whatsoever to discriminate good ideas from bad ones. They added so much shit to the NF's performance that made it look worse ♥ and fixed NONE of the issues ♥ The song's uptempo, and restricting Saba's movement to a space smaller than most countries' postal stamps may not have been the most prudent choice here (maybe i should add small platforms to the list of Massive Staging Faux Pas alongside sunglasses, unnecessary headset mics, selfie backdrops and turntables?)
Oh and one of those faux pas was ofc also present like why is this a shot?
Tumblr media
YOU CAN SO CLEARLY SEE it isn't her. 😂 😍
Before rehearsals I was on the fence whether Denmark could qualify or not but as soon as I saw the tiktok that showed the backdrop clone and the effects I knew she was gonna be out. Oh well. Time to hop on the MALTA QUALIFIES train I gues.
All in all, "Sand" pretty much what you would expect from Denmark. An average, not unpleasant (and memeable) song that was somehow the only acceptable option in an horrible NF. They tried VERY hard to elevate into goodness, and completely failed. ♥ I love "Sand"'s journey ironically and kind unironically enjoy it for its incompetence, which makes it a good opener for this year's Green tier.
Btw: with Georgia, ☘Ireland☘ and ❤Latvia❤ all reaching the finals this year (EGGS! EEEEEEEGGS!!! DONS'S CLUTCH QUAL IS BETTER THAAAAN SEX!), Denmark now have the longest NQ streak out of all the active ESC countries. Cannae wait to see what creative new way they'll figure out to accedentally get level with Montenegro's as well. ♥
THE RANKING

Snippet for a fic I'm writing
Thanks to the discussion I had with @sammywolfgirl , and the ideas I got from @queen-rainy-love and @eclipsewarrior101 .... I'm writing a fic for Shine Muscat.
"Its gonna be called, "A secret date"
Here's a snippet!! Its a human Au, human names used.
Also for @sammywolfgirl , a special cowgirl makes an appearance.
Hope you enjoy!!
Shine Muscat Cookie- Marylin
Potato Cookie- Jedidiah
Potato Cookie's siblings- Ruphert, Yuki, Lil' Ruby, and Blanche
Rye Cookie- Rachel
---------------------------------
Her phone began to ring, looking up from her pillow. She groaned, praying it wasn't another photo shoot. With all of the events and meetups she had to do all week, she just wanted some alone time in bed.
She glanced at the screen, soon sitting up in excitement. It was Jedidiah, that kind potato farmer from the Healthy Hamlet. She had met him during the Giant Veggie festival and had become great friends. She always made sure to visit his farm whenever she stayed at her family’s farmhouse during the summer. 
She quickly made herself look presentable before answering the video call.
The farmer was sitting at his family table, looking to be cutting up potatoes and putting them in a bowl. The sound of his little siblings playing could be heard in the background along with the TV.. 
“ Howdy, Marylin!!” Jedidiah said, one of his iconic smiles on his face. Marylin felt a bit giddy. It made her heart flutter whenever he said her name. “My apologies if I am calling ya at a bad time.”
“ Hi, Jed. No, I’m not busy. “Marylin replied, brushing some of her hair back from her face. “I just got off work earlier. Ugh…I'm tired..”
“ Long day?” He asked.
“Yeah, I had 3 modeling sessions back to back right after I had practice for a scene in an upcoming movie.” She said, soon laying back down on her side. “ I truly do love my job, but I need a break sometimes.”
“ Can’t imagine being in your shoes, Marylin. I guess that makes sense why you like spending time here in the Hamlet, then. Be away from all of those city folk.”
Marlyin laughed a bit, looking at her phone. It was true. It was a blessing she was able to get her great aunt’s farmhouse under her name. Pretty sure her parents would rather forget about it, but she didn’t. Not focusing on being an actress and being able to wind down was amazing. Well, it was the only reason either. 
“I guess that’s true. Plus, its nice and quiet there.” Marylin said. “ How are your little siblings?”
Jedidiah chuckled a bit himself, leaning back in his seat. “ Rowdy as ever. Hey guys, come say to Marylin!!” He shouted into the living room.
Marylin laughed as she heard the pitter-patter of feet come closer, seeing 4 children try to fit into the camera. All tried to talk at once.
“ HI, Ms. Marylin!!!” Rupert said with a toothy grin.
“Are you sleeping? “ Asked little Blanche.
“When are you coming back to the farm?” Asked Yuki, sitting in Jedidiah’s lap.
“Yeah, big brother is showing us how to drive the tractor. Its fun riding around in it!” Said Lil' Ruby, patting the table.
“Hehe, hello you all. Are you all behaving for your big brother?” Marylin asked, getting a collective ‘yes” for the little ones.
“ When are you visiting??” Asked Yuki again, getting excited.
“ Maybe in the summer. I have to finish some work up here in the city.”
“ Maybe Big bro can help you!!!’ Said Lil’ Ruby. “ 
“Yeah!! He has to visit the city anyways!” Said Ruphert. “ Maybe he could help your with your acting job. Jedidiah is always helping people!!”
Jedidiah chuckled and shook his head, setting the Yuki down. “Now, I know who’s been snoopin’ on my phone calls.” He said, tickling the boy to make him giggle. “You all run along now.”
The 4 kids soon left as they came, leaving Marylin and Jedidiah alone to talk.
“Is that true?” Marylin asked.
“Hehe,yeah.. I got to drive up there to pick up some part for the tractor” He explain, rubbing the back of his neck.. Apparently some squirrel dropped some of their acorns in and messed up the engine. I tired looking for it here, but apparently they don't have what I need in stock at the moment. I already made the order, so now I just got to drive up to where you are to get it.”
“Sounds like an adventure.” Marylin replied.
“It’s definitely gonna be, gonna take me about 3 days roundtrip.. I don’t visit the city much. I prefer it here at home. “
She nodded, understanding what he meant. 
“W-well..” She spoke up. “ Do you want to meet up while you're up here? I can set you up a room in one of the hotels near me.”
Jedidiah looked a bit surprised. “ R-really?” He asked. “ Aw shucks, you don’t have to do all that ,Marylin..”
“No no , I insist.” The actress said, sitting up again in bed. “Jed, you and your family have always been so nice to me since I began to visit the Hamlet again. Helping me with chores, fixing that loud boiler once,  allowing me to come over for dinner sometimes… At least let me do this for you..”
She saw that the farmer looked a bit nervous, rubbing the back of his neck. Maybe she was being a bit forward? I mean, they were only friends. At least she thinks so?
“ Are.. Are you really sure about Marylin?” Jedidiah asked her, looking back at the screen. “ You mean it?”
Marylin nodded, giving him a smile. “ I’m sure of it. Consider it payment for all of the times you help me out.”
Jedidiah soon chuckled. “Well, it would be rude to deny a lady’s offer huh?” He joked, making Marylin laugh again.
“Hehe, I think so. What time are you coming in? “
“Should take me most of the day to get there. “
“Sounds good.” Marylin soon heard a knock in Jedidiah’s background, seeing him turn to look.
“ Cousin Rachel is here!!!” Said Ruby, running past Jedidiah to hug a person offscreen.
“Rachel?” Asked Marylin. 
“ My cousin on my Ma’s side. She's going to be babysitting my little sibling while I'm gone. " Jedidiah said, soon headlocked by a blonde haired woman with freckles.
“ Ay!! You talkin’ about me??” The woman said with a grin, ruffling the farmer’s hat and hair.
“Rach, I’m on call with someone!!” Jedidiah protested, wenching himself out of her grip..
“Oh! You talkin’ to your girlfriend??” Rachel said, looking at the screen. "Hi, the name's Rachel. So, my cousin proposed yet?? He talks about ya a lot, you know-"
" RACHEL!!!

Distance pt. 2
Tumblr media
INITIALLY POSTED ON MY FORMER PAGE: bts-teaspoonff
Genre: Romance, Oblivious Mutual Pining, Operation:Jealousy, College!AU, eventual smut
Pairing: Jimin x reader
Rating: PG-13 (last chapter - M rating)
Synopsis: You adore Jimin but you’ve kept it a secret from him despite being so close to him. Jimin turns out that he feels the same. Would you be able to erase the distance between you and Jimin when mountains of obstacles come both your way?
Word count: 6.9k
PARTS: 1 | 2 | 3
(A/N) Wait for the next and last chapter for the *ehem* smut. I’ll work hard on the last part of this series to give a good smut for OC and Jimin. Enjoy!
What just happened?
You lay on your bed staring blankly at the ceiling trying to comprehend what a whirlwind of a night this was. The night actually started on a good note as you remember having a great time with Jimin. The night felt stretched out the whole time you were together and then suddenly, everything went by in a blur. Last thing you remember was Hoseok dropping you back home and then dropping a bomb by confessing to you.
“Shoot. I didn’t plan to confess this way to you.” Hoseok’s arms stretched out and hands on your shoulders. His heart is about to explode in his chest realizing the bad timing of his confession but then, he looked straight at you to convey his seriousness. “But I mean it.”
As you scan the various Polaroid photos on the wall above your study while still lying on the bed, you noticed that majority of them would be with the boys. They would always ask you to bring the Polaroid wherever event you and the boys would go to. Sometimes, they would ask Jungkook to just steal it in your room without even asking you. The photos you have stuck on the wall are the ones you bargained to keep.
There are various photos of Jungkook pranking his older band members, Taehyung and Jimin’s abundant selfies and group selfies where you would be squished in the middle of the boys crowded your white wall. Your relationship with these boys were so unexpected but now you consider it as your most treasured relationship. Maybe that’s why you’re also scared to confess to Jimin. You don’t want to ruin the perfect harmony within the group. If you risk confessing and he doesn’t feel the same way about you, both of you would be awkward around each other then everyone will eventually feel it. Your fingers tremor at the thought of you losing these boys. 
When Hoseok confessed, you couldn’t really speak a word. You were absolutely flustered, surprised and baffled. Hoseok felt it too as he tries to read your expression. He expressed that he wasn’t asking for your response right away but he told you to think about his confession. Hoseok was always an older brother figure to you and you haven’t seen him as someone more than a friend. However, when you think back on his confession and the way he wrapped his arms around you that time, your chest felt like a furnace burning at the thought.
You really didn’t get to drink a lot at the party since the night was cut short due to the mishap with that damn pervert. You wiggled out of bed on top of the sheets, walked out of your room and towards the kitchen. You pry opened a small cabinet in the hope of having a bottle of wine to chug. Luckily, it still had one bottle of your favorite Muscat wine. It’s lonely to drink alone but you felt like you needed a glass of this wonderful temptress.
You poured one into a wine glass as you sat on your favorite tall stool in front of the kitchen counter. You pulled a plate of cheese and crackers that you took out from the fridge towards you and played your favorite RnB music on your phone that is connected to your Bluetooth speaker at the edge of the counter. The ambience in the kitchen changed and you felt yourself swaying to the sweet music that is slowly filling the house. You turned up the music without any regards to your neighbors that might be sleeping. A tug in your chest startled you as you remember that if not because of the pervert, you should be dancing beside Jimin right now or enjoying the night with him.
An hour passed and you finished the whole bottle of Muscat wine as you try to pour the remaining drops in your glass. You jumped off the stool and your legs went jelly. You were starting to get a bit intoxicated but you were determined to find another bottle inside the cabinets. Your dad might have hidden a bottle or two at the back of the cabinets for their consumption. He knows that you love Muscat wine and they do too. You would always steal one from their stash and you discovered that there are bottles hidden across the kitchen to at least protect it from your sticky hands.
You took the stool and stood on it to look for any valuable bottles on the topmost cabinets. After a few minutes and a few empty cabinets, the doorbell rang and it startled you that the chair shook and almost toppled you over. You climbed down the stool and walked away from the kitchen. A peek through the peephole on the door and you saw Jungkook between Taehyung and Jimin with his head down and arms around the two. You quickly opened the door as you worry for your brother and ushered them inside. The three of them walked in and you close the door behind them. A swift whiff of the air around them welcomed you with a strong scent of alcohol. Jungkook’s face was scarlet red, a telltale sign that he’s had too much. Taehyung’s shirt had essences of someone’s vomit, presumably my brother’s. Jimin’s cheeks and ears were red as well but I know that Jimin can handle his alcohol very well and the fact that he can support Jungkook without sway means that he’s tipsy but okay. 
“Help him upstairs. Taehyung, take a shower and just borrow a shirt from his closet.” Taehyung must have not drank a lot since I can’t really smell anything on him. He fixed Jungkook’s arm around his neck as he looks down on his shirt with disgust. Jimin giggled at his best friend having a hard time contemplating if he will help Jungkook to his bed or perform a suplex right now on my brother for vomiting on his sleek shirt. You watch Taehyung and Jimin struggle with helping a very stubborn and noisy Jungkook up the stairs and disappear as they enter the bedroom. 
Back to looking for another bottle, you climbed up the stool and held unto the handles of the next topmost cabinet you are eager to search through. After rows of fine china and extra plates, a small glimmer at the back of the cabinet finally tickled your interest. A hope of another hidden treasured bottle now in view excites you. Your hand reaches out to the back of the cabinet but even if you wiggle out your fingers, it’s still out of reach. Carefully, you place your other foot onto the counter and stepped off the stool. You try to reach for it once again and your fingers met the neck of the bottle. You slowly withdraw your hand out the cabinet when someone suddenly called out for your name. You were so startled by the sudden noise that your other foot slipped off the counter. You weren’t able to reach out to a surface in time to save yourself from falling so instead, you tightly hugged the bottle that was in your hands.
Closed eyes as you fall off the counter and you were met by a loud grunt from someone as two arms cradled you from falling. Your hands are still tightly wrapped around the bottle and your brows are strongly furrowed. “You would prefer to save the wine rather than yourself?” You heard a familiar giggle and his scent slowly enveloped your nose. You opened your eyes and looked up to see Jimin’s face so dangerously close to yours. You got a close look at Jimin’s pink luscious lips and slightly blushed-out cheeks and ears. Even though he smells slightly of alcohol, he still smells like a fresh spring meadow basked in warm sunlight. For years, this familiar scent has always comforted you. You would always sneak in a sniff whenever he’s around and you would be instantly comforted.
Jimin felt warm at the sight that your face was so close to him. He was delighted that you are now around his arms, the first instance that he held you this close. He had longed to hold you like this for so long. He gazes at your lips and he examines your face. He could see that your doe eyes were also scanning him tenderly, a sight so precious that it made his heart pound so hard. He also finds you hugging the bottle in your arms with all your strength so adorable that he restrains himself from pinching your red cheeks. He was now confused seeing your red cheeks and slightly droopy eyelids that his eyes went straight to the counter. He could see an empty bottle beside your glass and a half-eaten tray of cheese and crackers. “Are you drinking on your own? Are you drunk right now?” He faced you and you adorably nod. You slowly buried your face in Jimin’s chest, a gesture that you unconsciously did because you wanted more of your favorite scent. Jimin was now aroused at the way you wiggle and bury your head in his chest slightly near the crook of his neck. Your scent was now intoxicating to him. He could only gulp as he try to hold back at this moment from taking advantage of the situation and kiss you. He has been holding out from escalating anything between the both of you and now, you’re just dangerously testing his limits. 
He quickly walks to your stool with you still cradled in his arms. He slowly dropped you to sit on the stool and took the bottle that was locked in your arms to place it on the table. “If you were already drunk, you shouldn’t be climbing on top of any counter. That’s dangerous.” He sat on another stool beside you and faced you as he lean his elbow on the counter.
“I’m not yet drunk. Just tipsy. I only had one bottle. Besides, I got lonely that I didn’t get to drink with you guys.” You bit your lower lips and pouted. At this point, Jimin thought you are now intentionally testing his self-control. How your red dress hugs your curves and the skirt slightly riding up your thighs, a sight to behold but it made him remember how that pervert from the party attempted to place his filthy hands on your thighs. He clenches his hands as he regret to be the one who saved you instead of Hoseok. He wanted you for himself. The sight of you driving away in Hoseok’s car made his heart drop. He wanted to be the one in Hoseok’s place. “Care to join me on the porch?” You stood up from the stool with two glasses and the bottle of wine in each hand and walked away from the kitchen. Jimin broke away from his thoughts and stood up from the chair to follow you.
You try to open the door with your arms as your hands are full from the glasswares but Jimin quickly catches up in front of you and turns the doorknob. A strong cold breeze hugged you as you walk outside to the porch. The moonlight was brightly shining in the sky that it made the night more intimate. You head to the small couch on the corner of the porch with Jimin following behind you. You hand him a glass and you poured wine in yours as you sit down. He took the bottle from your hands once you were done. His hands slightly grazed yours, a warm touch in contrast to the chilly evening breeze.
“I thought you were supposed to sleep at Hoseok’s?”
“Change of plans.” Jimin can’t admit that he convinced Taehyung to drive all of them home so that he could see you again and his curiosity is killing him all night whether Hoseok has confessed to you or not since Taehyung told him that he would do it tonight. He didn’t want to ask you directly but he’s hoping that you might mention it to him if Hoseok did confess to you. “At least you have a drinking companion right now.”
“Yeah. I guess I do need one.” You took a sip of your wine and Jimin was hopeful you would blurt out what happened between you and Hoseok when you two were alone together. He recall Hoseok’s face when he came back to the party. His face was red as he rush towards Taehyung. They just exchanged glances and seem to have understood each other without saying anything out loud. Jimin figured that Hoseok must’ve confessed to you when he dropped you off at home based on the change with his demeanor. 
“A few more months and we’re finally graduating. In no time, we’ll also be working like Namjoon and Hoseok.” You stare out towards the dark sparkling sky. The stars are visible tonight, abundantly occupying the vast sky above. The moon was also enchantingly glowing behind a ball of cloud. Being in this moment with Jimin was a first for both of you. There were a few moments where you were alone with Jimin especially when you were still partners for the report but not once was there a moment as solemn as this. Despite not exchanging any words, being in each other’s presence and savoring this rare moment was enough for you. You steal a few glances towards his direction and he looks so fine-looking as his Adam’s apple ride up and down as he sips from his glass. He combs his fingers through his hair as he looks at the night sky.
“I don’t want to lose any of you.” Jimin blurted out with a melancholic tone. You swiftly turn your head to him at his words as you nervously gulped down a sip of your wine. “I guess eventually we’ll all head in different directions. I love spending time with all of you and I cherish all those moments. I just can’t imagine that we’ll barely spend time together once we get our own jobs.” He put down his glass on his thighs and looks at you.
“That’s reality. I share the same sentiment as you but I have to accept that everyone’s going to be busy and will have their own life outside of our circle.” You finished your glass and poured another. “We just have to talk to everyone whenever we would like to meet up and hangout.” You beamed a huge smile at Jimin and he finds it adorable. 
“Will you be staying here in town after graduation? I mean find a job here?”
“I guess. I have no reason to leave town.”
You spend the next hour with Jimin outside the porch as you both finish the bottle. Jimin’s alcohol tolerance was higher than you so after almost two bottle of wine, you were a lot drunk now compared to earlier. Jimin also noticed that your eyes started to get significantly hooded so he offered to walk you up to your room. He held and supported you as both of you walked inside the house. Taehyung walked out of Jungkook’s room now fresh out of the shower and is wearing Jungkook’s clothes.
“She’s also drunk? Geez, these siblings really are a handful when drunk.” Jimin tried to shush Taehyung as he supports you up the stairs.
“I am not drunk. Just tipsy.” You refute in a slurred tone as you barely keep your body straight when you lift one feet up to the next step.
“Okay okay.” Taehyung surrendered as he leans both of his elbow on the railing. His hair was still wet and dripping. He tries to shake his head and some of the water splashed on you and Jimin. Jimin exclaimed and Taehyung apologized but was amused at your slow reaction. “Both you and Jungkook are so adorable and defenseless when drunk though. Be careful not to be taken advantage by anyone.” He stared at Jimin and teasingly winked. Jimin also teasingly scoffed at Taehyung and urged him to go back to Jungkook’s bedroom.
Jimin opens the door and you ran to your bed, slamming yourself on the sheets face up. Jimin noticed that your skirt rode up your thighs and from where he was standing at the door, he almost saw what was underneath your skirt. Aroused at what he saw but he quickly turned his head away in a second. As he steps inside your room, you stretch out both of your arms in front of you and towards the ceiling.
“Can you please pass me Mini?” with your eyes still closed, your hands still up in the air started opening and closing as if trying to gesture to Jimin to quickly give you something.
“Who?”
“Mini. The stuffed calico cat.” You pointed towards your beanbag with eyes closed. Jimin chuckles at your state right now. Although he’s been with you to some parties, the effect of wine and other booze differs with you. When you’re wine-drunk, you turn into this adorable clingy little girl but when you’re liquor-drunk, it’s like a 180 degree change from your slightly quiet demeanor to being a loud and energetic partygoer. He recalls that you like to rap with Hoseok and Namjoon when you’re liquor-drunk. He likes when you’re wine-drunk but he usually dislikes it when you become clingy to other guys in the band. He told you once to avoid drinking wine when you’re with other people (aside from the guys in the band) without telling his reason for doing so. 
Jimin pulled Mini from the beanbag and hands it out to you. Instead of Mini, you caught Jimin’s wrist and to Jimin’s surprise, you strongly pulled him towards you that he loses his balance. Jimin fell towards the bed but he supported himself just in time to stop his body from slamming unto you. Fortunately, Mini the stuffed calico cat got in between the two of you or else, Jimin’s lips would have landed on your cheek. You were still heavily intoxicated from the wine so you don’t realize that it was Jimin that you pulled. All you thought was that Jimin was so slow from giving Mini to you that when something came in contact with your hand, you yanked it with all your might. You grinned as you feel Mini’s softness now on your chest. You turned to the side and tried to hug Mini but instead, you hugged Jimin closer to you. Your leg also wrapped itself on Jimin’s legs.
Jimin was now flustered at how fast everything went by. Your arms and legs are now wrapped around him. He could almost feel his limit snap from how you were acting around him. The heat from your legs was now warming up his lower body. Something was growing under his pants and he couldn’t hide it anymore. His erected member was now standing attention under the tent of his pants. He pushes his hips away from you to avoid you. He took a slow deep breath to regain his composure. Once he did relax, he gazed at how defenseless you are resting in front of him. You were breathing slowly while cuddling Mini on your chest and your limbs are peacefully around on his body. 
“You are not allowed to be this wine-drunk with anyone else but me. Not even Hoseok-hyung.” He tucks a stubborn hair strand behind your ear and gazes at you.
“Okay.” You softly replied and Jimin was surprised to hear you respond. You only blurted a response but you weren’t aware of your surroundings. You were half-asleep at this point and has started to dream that you are out on a date with Jimin.
“Are you still awake?” Jimin asks but you didn’t reply. “Doesn’t matter if you can hear me or not. I won’t hand you over to anyone.” Jimin slowly frees himself from your embrace. He kneels down at the edge of your bed, looking at your face. You continue to hug Mini tighter in your arms. “You really do look beautiful tonight, y/n.” he caresses your cheek for a few seconds before standing up. He took a blanket to place on top of you and walked to the door. He glanced back once more at you comfortably resting on the bed before closing the door.
…..
You woke up from a gentle knock on the door. The bright light peeking through your curtains blinded you so you hid your head under the blanket. Another knock from the door was heard and someone called for you against the crevice of the door. 
“We made breakfast downstairs. Um, you can come down if you’re awake.” Jimin’s gentle voice echoed against the door, tickling your ears. What a nice way to wake up. If only you could always wake up to his voice every morning. You try to get up from bed but a sudden wave of headache caused you to grunt from the pain. 
You try to remember what happened last night but you can’t remember how you arrived on your comfy bed that is still tempting you right now to stay in it. A vague memory of Taehyung in Jungkook’s clothes standing against the railings and Jimin walking beside you. Aside from that, everything is a blank. Here’s to hoping that you didn’t made a fool of yourself or left your dignity lying on the floor somewhere.
You saw your disheveled reflection from the floor-length mirror across your room. A few wavy and short hair strands occupied your forehead and the rest of your hair that was bundled in a tie was now a hot mess. You brushed your fingers through your locks to tame the morning mess and ran it across your dress to flatten the crumples. You were still drowsy and annoyed by the headache but you hurriedly rummaged through the t-shirt pile that was on your chair. Going downstairs looking like how you are now is a big no-no. There were a lot of instances that they saw your morning face when the band had frequent sleepovers after late night practices. You and everyone were basically comfortable with each other already that you treat them like family but as the only girl in the group and with the presence of Jimin, you made sure that you still look good even in the morning.
You pulled a big white shirt over your head and properly pulled it until you looked like you’re wearing a dress. Quietly stepping out of the room, you noticed the smell of bacon and pancakes engulfing every corner of the house. You skipped down the steps and saw the three of them sitting around the dining table. All of them turned their head towards your direction. Taehyung was gladly taking a huge bite off a pancake that he rolled filled with strawberry jam and cream while Jungkook was slicing up the eggs that was on his plate. Jimin was putting down a plate on the vacant space beside him and he gestured you to seat on the unoccupied chair.
“Who did the cooking?” You asked as you scan the faces of the three boys. Taehyung raised his hand as he chew and his cheeks are now bulging, filled with pancakes.
“He cooked the pancakes. He was supposed to use your waffle maker but he kept burning it all so I urged him to just make pancakes. I did the eggs.” Jimin stood up to take an egg from another plate and placed it yours. “Over-hard eggs just the way you like it.” You were in awe that he remembered how you like to eat your eggs in the morning. Usually it was Hoseok and Taehyung who did the cooking whenever everyone would eat together. Hoseok would be the one to separate all the over-hard eggs from the over-easy eggs on the plate. 
“Thank you Jimin.” You sat down, staring at him. He caught you looking and he sends a huge charming smile at you. “You good?” You turn to your brother that was silently eating his breakfast. You pat his head as he pouts.
“Good. Just a bad case of hangover… and my back hurts.” He glared at Taehyung. Taehyung laughs as he teasingly smacked your brother’s shoulder.
“I did umm… I accidentally pushed him off the bed while we were sleeping. Yup! That’s what happened.” Taehyung nervously laughed. He tried to kick Jungkook’s feet under the table and raised his other eyebrow to send a message to Jungkook.
���How about you? No headache?” Jimin asks.
“Slight but it’s tolerable.” You cut up your pancakes and generously drizzled syrup on it.
As you were about to ask Jimin about what happened last night, the doorbell surprised all of you. Someone started knocking and Hoseok’s voice came from the door. Taehyung quickly gets up to get the door and then Hoseok cheerfully skipped from the door to the kitchen while carrying a plastic bag on one hand. He stood beside Jungkook and teased him from being so drunk last night. Your cheeks started to get hot as you remember his confession last night.
Jimin noticed that you turned your head away and avoided Hoseok’s eyes. He looked back at Hoseok and there was something different about the two of you. Hoseok haven’t greeted you yet as he try to make conversations with the three boys. Jimin wondered what was going on between you and Hoseok and then he realized that Hoseok must have really confessed to you last night considering how shy you are right now that Hoseok is in the house. He felt slightly irritated and that a knot in his chest was now all Jimin could feel. 
Hoseok pulled out a reusable bowl from the plastic bag and put it in the middle of the table. He takes off the lid and told us that he made some hangover soup. Jungkook and Taehyung got excited at the sight of the still-hot scrumptious soup in front of them. Jungkook stood up from his seat and excitedly ran back to the kitchen to get bowls for all of you. Taehyung was sniffing the steam off the soup as he drools.
“You’ll drool on the soup, Tae.” Jimin laughs as he pushed Taehyung away from the small bowl.
Hoseok then walked around the table towards you. You nervously chewed your pancakes as your eyes follow him from your peripheral view. By now, Hoseok must’ve noticed how silent you are since he arrived. You don’t want him to think that you’re avoiding him but you really don’t know what to do or say to him. He pulled out something from the bag and reached out to you as he stood beside you.
“Here.” You try to read the label and it says vitamin drink. You felt bad that you actually thought to try avoid talking to him today when he went out of his way to give you a hangover drink. You lift up your head to look directly at him as you take the drink off his hands.
“Thank you Hoseok. I appreciate it.” You smiled and he did too. He looks relieved that you accepted the drink and smiled caringly at him after he saw you avoid his gaze when he entered the house. He then gave out the same drinks to the other boys. Jungkook and Taehyung were now greedily scooping out the soup to their bowls. You chuckle at how silly those two look. “You shouldn’t have bothered to cook.”
“No worries. I felt bad that Jungkook came home that drunk and besides, my cooking skills got a lot better after I started working. I just want to brag.” His usual sunshine-like energy was back as he walk back around the table. He pulled out the chair beside Taehyung and sat down.
Jimin was silently eating his breakfast as he observes the two of you. Just a moment ago, you were sitting down getting all timid but now he feels as if you’re openly flirting with Hoseok in front of him. Ever since Taehyung told him that Hoseok would be confessing to you, he felt uneasy that he might have lost his chance to confess to you. He respects Hoseok very much that he feels torn if he can still flirt with you or make advances at you. He was now burning with jealousy, a feeling that was now eating him up as he goes through his breakfast.
…..
A week has passed since that eventful night. Buried in your lectures and exams, you didn’t get to see anyone from the group that much. Jungkook barely came out of his room as he prepare for his exams. Sometimes, Taehyung would visit him to help him study until late at night but you were also busy locked up in your room so you didn’t get to see either of them. Jimin was also often out of sight. He would stay in the library until it closes then he’ll hangout with Taehyung to write the song for Gala Night. Hoseok hasn’t contacted you either. Your girl friends are also busy studying on their own. 
Understandable that all of the seniors in the campus are busier than ever. We have approximately one month before graduation until we go out in the real world. Job applications are looming in the distance. You have some companies in mind to which you intend to apply and it’s nerve-wracking to think that in a few weeks’ time, everyone would start applying and compete for job offerings like vicious dogs.
Your study table is filled with stacks of books to read. Looking at it makes you want to gouge your eyes out but you’re determined to make it out there in the real world without worries. A paper lying on the corner of your table also caught your attention. A blank paper intended for your ideas on the band’s song for Gala Night. Love, that’s supposed to be the theme surrounding the song. A theme you’re not really well-versed in composing. Writing love songs hasn’t really been your forte and have tried a thousand times but you never really made one that resonated with anyone, much less you. You have picked up a pen this week to try and start even a few words but it comes off bland. Thinking back on it, you imagine Taehyung and Jimin trying to beg you to help them with the song but you don’t want to disappoint them if you’ll admit that you can’t compose even one decent love song. The both of them told you that they’re really trying to make the song but you haven’t heard an update from them.
That night before the weekend, you got frightened with a loud ringtone from your phone across the room. You turn around in your chair and saw your phone screen light up as it continues to ring on your bed sheet. You take a few seconds to get to your phone and when you grabbed it off your bed, Hoseok’s name was on the screen. This was the first time he called you since after his confession. Taking a deep breathe before picking up the call, you heard his jolly voice on the line the instant you answered the call. Even without seeing him, you could imagine the usual smile Hoseok has. You suddenly felt lifted up from the change of energy.
“What’s up?” you went back to your table with your phone against your ear.
“You busy?” he asks.
“Just about to take a break from studying. Exams are coming up.” You take your phone off your ear and lean it against your phone stand just in front of you as you put the call on speaker mode.
“Oh final exams? I get shivers remembering our last month in college.” He chuckles. I smile at the way we talk through the phone, as if the awkwardness between us last week didn’t happen. “Which reminds me the reason why I called.”
Your pen ran across your notepad as you listen to the call. “Did something happen?”
“No. I called because…” A pause between his words caught your attention. “I wanted to ask you out. This weekend. I know you’re busy so you can decline if you need to.” You froze from writing as his words register in your mind. Both of you stayed silent as you panic at the thought of trying to come up with a response.
“Sure. I intend to take a day-off from studying anyways.” The tremble in your voice would have been obvious if Hoseok was observant. You just hope he didn’t notice it.
“Really? Okay, meet me tomorrow at XX café at 10 am. I won’t take up much of your time.” The excitement from him radiated across the call. You admit to yourself that the thought of going out on a date with Hoseok shakes your nerves but hearing him so happy slightly eases your nerves. Maybe it will be nothing different from how you guys spend time together with the other boys. The only difference is that you know he likes you and sees you as a woman and not just a friend anymore.
The call ended quickly and you’re back to staring at your books on the table. Despite being on the phone with Hoseok just moments ago, Jimin suddenly filled your thoughts. You hoped that it was him who called and invited you out on a date. Seeing his eyes squint and the way he throws his body when he’s laughing hard amuses you every time. You love how comfortable he goofs around with you when you’re alone together. You now felt bad from thinking about Jimin out on a date with you when it was Hoseok who asked you out.
As if on cue, Jimin’s name suddenly appeared on the screen of your phone as you were thrown off from your seat with the loud ringtone. You pick the phone swiftly, in contrast to the way you took your time as you answer Hoseok’s call.
“Hey. What’s up?”
“Hey. Am I interrupting you from anything?” His calm voice tickled you as you press the phone against your ears.
“No. I’m just resting. Why did you call?” You try to tone down the excitement from your voice.
“Nothing much. I just wanted to check up on you.” You felt as if you were floating across your room as you hear from him that he was checking up on you. Your cheeks started to get hot and your breath is getting ragged. “Are you free on Sunday?” The dryness in your throat felt prickly as you anticipate his next words.
“I think so, yeah. Why?” The thought of him asking you out might now be a reality but you try not to expect too much.
“A new café opened in town and I think you’re going to like it there. I know you love trying out new coffee shops. Want to try it with me?” He calmly asks. Your smile was so wide that it can almost touch your ears. 
“Looking forward to it.” He let out an adorable giggle as you take up on his offer.
“See you on Sunday!” you shriek as you hung up the call.
Once again, you’re back to staring at your books. A soft slap landed on your cheeks and you realize that you’re not dreaming. You are torn on being excited and worried for tomorrow and the next day. The two of them surely doesn’t know that they both asked you out tonight. You worry if you need to inform the two of them but not letting them know surely won’t hurt anyone. Besides, it’s not like you are exclusively allowed to go out with just one. It might just be a friendly date and nothing more.
“Noona!” Jungkook’s sudden loud voice and barrage of knocks against your wall adjacent to his room suddenly interrupted you from your thoughts. You almost scoff at him from doing so but only giggles came out of you.
…..
It’s Saturday. The signage of the café in front of you seems larger compared to when you recall it. This was a familiar spot as you spent a lot of days in here just to compose songs with Namjoon, study alone or just hang out with the boys. The cheesecake that they offer here is to die for and the baristas know how much you love it that they know your order without a need for you to talk. The chatter inside the cafe greeted you as the door opens. Hoseok was sitting in the far corner, the spot that you always go to. A spot that was slightly hidden from the main space of the café.
You tread through the café and he spots you instantly. Somehow, it didn’t feel weird that you’re out with Hoseok. He has been a source of joy in the group and he never ceases to lift up the mood. You were worried that with the change of pace between the two of you, you won’t be the same around him. However, you feel relaxed around him.
He accompanies you to a movie theater showing a film that you’ve been waiting to watch. He wanted you to take a breather and hope that this can at least lighten up your mood. You realize that he must have been observant with you for a long time. Hoseok has always been the “mother” who takes care of everyone in the group and maybe more with you since you’re the only girl among the boys. You just saw him as very caring person and never thought his actions meant beyond platonic.
Hoseok made sure to be considerate with your feelings. He doesn’t want to rush anything with you. Before he realized his feelings with you, he also saw you as a little sister like how you saw him as an older brother. When he started to acknowledge his attraction with you, he made sure to be subtle. Now that he confessed to you, he was aware that you started to get nervous around him. You were still warming up at the thought that both of you are out on a date and not just a friendly hangout. He wanted to hold your hands during the movie every time your hands would be on the armrest or when you would get some popcorn in the snack bucket between the two of you. He wanted to be careful with you and not overwhelm you.
The movie ended and you were relieved that it’s done. You were comfortable during the first part of the film but midway when you noticed Hoseok’s hands inching near yours, you could almost wet a tissue from how sweaty your palms are with how anxious you are at that moment. You were internally panicking if you should let him or not. Thankfully he just grazed yours and stopped when he noticed that you slightly pulled your hand away as you were startled.
The light were on and everyone started walking out of the cinema. Your eyes were starting to adjust to the bright lights as you exit the doors. Hoseok was just behind you as you try to look around for the restroom when he called out Jimin’s name. You turn your head as you search the vicinity for Jimin. There he was lining up for the popcorn stand.
Jimin still hasn’t noticed you but he heard Hoseok as he turns his head towards him. Hoseok cheerfully skipped to him but he stopped a few feet away from him. You wondered why Hoseok stopped from his tracks as you noticed a small body frame beside Jimin. It still didn’t register to you who it was as you can only see someone’s backside.
A skirt and long black hair. It registered to you that a girl was beside Jimin. She was not just standing but she was wrapping her arms around Jimin’s. You froze as your heart sank thinking that Jimin’s out with a girl. A movie theater and Jimin’s lining up for the popcorn. He’s surely out on a date with the girl beside him. Your heart sank further at the thought. You wanted to run away.
Jimin’s eyes met with yours. His eyes travelled to you and back to Hoseok. He realized that you were out on a date with Hoseok. The same familiar feeling that bothered him during the breakfast after the party welled up inside him. A small part of his heart broke imagining you and Hoseok. As he tries to shove off the girl’s arm around him, he was surprised to see you walking away which was also noticed by Hoseok. He wanted to catch up to you to explain everything but he stopped as he recall that the last thing he saw was your eyes. A sadness that he can’t paint was evident in your eyes just before you turned around and walked away. He knows that chasing you now won’t do anything.
You wanted to get away from the cinema as fast as you can. Just imagining Jimin with another girl broke your heart. You didn’t have a right to get jealous but that was all you could think of right now and it’s eating you up. If only you could hide in a corner.

₊˚✧    ››    CRYSTALLIS MISSION 010  // homeplus cf
Tumblr media
that morning, hyejoo arrives on set with a sense of trepidation that she hasn't felt in a while. she feels like this whenever there's something new, she's noticed, that sense of unease and worry that she won't do well enough, or that she'll fall below expectations in some way. she's always feared the unknown, so when she goes somewhere or does something unfamiliar the foreign nature covers her like an uncomfortable blanket, making her head filled with worries.
it's not that she's never shot a commercial before, but it's just that she's always done it in a group setting, with other people so that she wasn't the only one. and from what she heard about this cf, there aren't even any extras that could be on set to help cushion the stillness, just her ( and maybe a dog, is what the staff member said ).
but at least there's a dog, right? somehow just another living being in the shot makes her feel just a bit more at ease.
but the shoot is more comfortable than she expects, and once she gets past the initial awkwardness she finds herself relaxing into it. it's one with a relaxing vibe, where she's eating grapes and making a cake. maybe it's easier because she's doing a hobby that she already likes, and her lines are barely just whispers. even as she shoots the cf, she feels like this suits her, and it makes her worries about not doing well a little bit better. there's a sense of softness and tranquility that she likes. as she puts the icing on the cake and decorates it with shine muscats, she finds herself relaxing into what she's doing, following the director's vision and trying to have fun, because who knows when she'll get an opportunity like this again.

I was surprised by how many methods you told me to remove the bones that I'd never heard beforeー!!!
The main answer was 「Put the saury on your plate and remove the spine」
Mama wanted to try it so she bought more saury today、but just enough for herself。
Also things you used to like!
Gundam was popular of course!
Gundam… is something I really don't know anything about…
But my dad likes them and just from what you all said they seem really amazing〜 I wonder where I could see some〜
Please let me know if you have any recommended series!
And one more thing!
In yesterday's blog I mentioned 「Green grapes」、but they were actually Shine Muscat grapes!
There are so many varieties of green grapes〜How Shocking〜
Everyone have you already watched our MV?!
I love it so much because the lyrics reference so many other songs so it feels really nostalgic but also representative of us!
My favourite part is
The rap before the 2nd verse where lyrics from The☆Peace! are included!

Personally I think this might be my favourite flavour of potato crisps!
I want to try dipping them in soy sauce too…
Speaking of which the same store just so happened to be selling soy sauce today。
Maybe I'll try it next time I visit…!
I Getted 「New Potato Crisp Flavour」✨
